Lunar orbit position on 14 June 2088 Monday 12:00 UTC

True anomaly ∠348.3°

This New Moon true anomaly is ∠348.3°. At beginning of next synodic month true anomaly will be ∠3.5°. The length of upcoming synodic months will keep increasing since the true anomaly gets closer to the value of New Moon at point of apogee (∠180°).
